August Vintage Oval or Jannpaul Oval 8/Nova for solitaire

[thisshallot999]

Hi there- I am wondering if anyone can provide insight on the AV Oval and JP Oval 8 or JP Oval Nova. With the size of stone being equal, which is ideal for a solitaire engagement ring? I have done some digging on pricescope and found that DG/AV and JP lab ovals were the most popular among this community, but I have not seen them compared side-by-side.

Just to clarify, the Nova is not oval more an octagon.

For an engagement ring, I’d try to find out her preferred length-to-width ratio. The AV is longer while the JP is broader. That’s a matter of taste. In terms of cut, they are diffeeent, but the most striking different is the overall shape. Both will have superb light return.

The Nova is a completely different animal. Beautiful, but not an oval.

Good luck!
